Everyone loves Lego (http://mashable.com/category/lego/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial), but **t everyone is allowed to enjoy the new Legoland Discovery Centre in Melbourne, Australia.
According to The Guardian, members of the Adult Fans of Lego community (AFOL) – yes, this is a thing – were outraged (https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/apr/20/legos-adult-fans-claim-discrimination-over-age-limits-at-melbourne-playground) after learning they couldn't access the center's playground because of their age. So outraged, in fact, that one man went so far as to threaten to file a human rights complaint against Legoland.
For goodness sake, Lego – sometimes grown adults just want to have fun.

The complaints against the Discovery Centre, which just opened on Tuesday, stem from the fact that it reportedly prohibits adults (https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/apr/20/legos-adult-fans-claim-discrimination-over-age-limits-at-melbourne-playground) from entering the center unless they're accompanied by a child age 17 or younger.* Read more...
